Polimec Evolution proposes reducing the Evaluation Round from 28 to 7 days, while extending both the Auction and Community Rounds from 5 to 7 days, and removing the candle auction along with the potential 7-day break between the Evaluation and Auction Rounds.
Additionally, a single 33% funding threshold is introduced, where exceeding this threshold triggers automatic acceptance, rewards for evaluators, and bonuses for long-term holders, whereas failing to meet it results in automatic decline, evaluator slashing, and participant refunds.
